The Era of Larger-Than-Life Stone
Once upon a time, quartz slabs were designed to fit the standard. Kitchens were smaller, vanities were basic, and large open-concept designs were rare. But not anymore. In today’s design era (where scale, continuity, and seamless surfaces dominate), standard-size slabs just can’t keep up.
That’s where super jumbo quartz slabs step in.
Whether you’re an interior designer working on a luxury kitchen or a homeowner tired of seams interrupting your countertops, jumbo quartz offers the elegant, modern solution.
What Is a Super Jumbo Quartz Slab?
Let’s get technical. A super jumbo quartz slab typically measures around 138” x 80”, depending on the brand and manufacturer. In comparison, a standard quartz slab might only reach 120” x 55”.
That’s over 30% more surface area. Enough to cover a full-size island, waterfall edge, and wall backsplash in one continuous piece.
This expanded size:
- Eliminates the need for visible seams
- Reduces material waste
- Speeds up installation
- Maximizes visual impact
You’re not just getting more stone, you’re getting a statement piece that elevates the entire space.
Why Designers and Homeowners Are Switching to Jumbo Slabs
1. Fewer Seams, More Drama
Seams are the visual equivalent of punctuation in a design sentence; they stop the eye. With super jumbo slabs, you get a visual flow that’s uninterrupted, which is especially desirable in open kitchens, long vanities, and modern islands.
For example, check out this selection of super jumbo slabs from FabQuartz, including Calacatta Laza Oro, Calacatta Karmelo, and Cristallo Gold. Their large format makes the veining patterns even more dramatic when installed in one piece.
2. Bigger Kitchens = Bigger Materials
With today’s floorplans trending toward open-concept spaces, islands aren’t just work surfaces - they’re gathering points. Jumbo quartz slabs make it possible to create:
- 10+ foot islands
- Oversized L-shape installations
- Wall-to-wall vanities without joins
3. Less Fabrication = More Savings
Although these slabs may cost slightly more up front, they often reduce overall project costs by minimizing labor, cutting, and seam placement. Installers love them because the process is smoother. Homeowners love them because the final result looks like it cost double.
Key Applications of Jumbo Slabs
Wondering where to use a jumbo slab? Here are the most impactful places:
1. Waterfall Kitchen Islands
Run the veining down both sides for a jaw-dropping centerpiece.
2. Full-Height Backsplashes
Instead of tiling, use the same quartz on your walls for a sleek and easy-to-clean look.
3. Commercial Bars or Cafés
Eliminate the choppy look of smaller slabs and create a clean, welcoming vibe.
4. Large Vanity Counters
Perfect for dual-sink setups or wall-to-wall bathroom vanities.

Sourcing Slabs in Utah: Local Availability Matters

Contractors and homeowners alike benefit from being able to see the stone in person, because let’s face it, online photos rarely do justice to the full scale and beauty.

Q: Do super jumbo slabs cost more than standard quartz?
A: Not by much! The price per square foot is often comparable, and you may save money on labor and seams.
Q: Are there structural risks with larger slabs?
A: Not when installed by professionals. The density and engineered structure of quartz make jumbo slabs extremely stable and reliable.
Q: Can I use super jumbo quartz outdoors?
